It’s safe to say that San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has been off to a slower start statistically in the 2024 season after earning a massive contract extension.
Aiyuk started 2023 with a bang, catching eight passes for 129 yards and two touchdowns in the 49ers season opener, but he has just six catches for 71 yards through two games with San Francisco thus far this year.
Following a two-catch, 28-yard game against the New York Jets in Week 1, where Aiyuk didn’t play nearly all of the offensive snaps, the star wideout saw five targets come his way in Week 2, hauling in four passes for 43 yards in the loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
